Well it's dark down here
In the shallow soil
Where the warm earth cradles me
And it feeds my soul
'Till it's time to grow
Breach the ground with shoots of green
But I'll bide my time
'Till the time is right
Then I'll reach toward the light
And face the sun
There is comfort in the dark
No judgement or cruelty
Just peace and solitude
But above the soil
Where they sweat and toil
Show their pain with fist and feud
So I'll bide my time
'Till my roots are strong
And I'm grounded when I turn
To face the sun
I can hear the thunder rumble
In the wars upon the land
I'm not brave enough to battle
I'm not strong enough to stand
So I'll let the soil heal me
'Till I feel it in my core
That I can bloom into the world
And I am sure I can withstand
Another storm
But it's dark down here
In the soft, rich soil
And I'm nurtured by the loam
And it soothes my soul
'Till it's time to grow
But right now this feels like home
So I'll bide my time
'Till the time is right
Then I'll reach toward the light
And face the sun
And face the sun

Harbour

When you’ve crossed the stormy waters
Come, walk a-shore
Bring your sons and bring your daughters
Wander no more
For our door is always open
And our hearth is always warm
When you need a place to shelter
We’re a harbour in the storm
There’ll be time for rest and sleeping
Come, walk a-shore
There’ll be space for peace and healing
Wander no more
For our door is always open
And our hearth is always warm
When you need a place to shelter
We’re a harbour in the storm
For in days of lesser fortune
Come, walk a-shore
We may need a door to open
Wander no more
For our door is always open
And our hearth is always warm
When you need a place to shelter
We’re a harbour in the storm
For our door is always open
And our hearth is always warm
When you need a place to shelter
We’re a harbour in the storm

These Bones

I never thought I'd sing the blues
Never thought I'd have to face losing you
But now you've put on those walking shoes
And left me alone to sing the blues
So I'll take these bones
And I will try try to stand alone
And if I was made of stone
I would not fall
We built this house upon the sand
Upon a bleak and stormy island
And though I knew it wouldn't always stand
Never thought it would fall at your command
So I'll take these bones
And I will try try to stand alone
And if I was made of stone
I could not fall
If I built pillars of iron
It I built walls of steel
If I made windows of diamond
Maybe I would not feel
These bones
These bones
These bones
I never thought I'd sing the blues
Never thought I'd have to face losing you
But now you've put on those walking shoes
And left me alone to sing these blues
Oh, mm
Oh, mm

I'm Going To Be Fine

When you first looked at me I thought you saw
The girl with the stars in her eyes
Red lips, bright lights
And confidence coursing through her veins
But you saw the fear behind the smile
And the pain she was hiding from the world
And you took the pieces of her broken heart
And just held them
Turns out your kiss is just what I needed
Turns our your lips were made to touch mine
Turns out your arms are filled with a healing
You give me the feeling I'm going to be fine
And when I'm striving to be my best
You're content with just good enough
And when life sends the tempests
You're there when the waters get rough
And when I feel like I'm drowning
You remind that I can swim
And while you hold the pieces of my broken heart
I can heal them
Turns out your kiss is just what I needed
Turns our your lips were made to touch mine
Turns out your arms are filled with a healing
You give me the feeling I'm going to be fine
And if you're wondering why I can climb this high
It's 'cause you hold the ladder steady
And if you want to know why I feel I could touch the sky
It's 'cause you hold the ladder steady
And when I finally stretch my wings and fly
It's 'cause you tell me that I'm ready
And I'll know that I am ready
'Cause you held the ladder steady
Turns out your kiss is just what I needed
Turns our your lips were made to touch mine
Turns out your arms are filled with a healing
You give me the feeling I'm going to be fine
I'm going to be fine
